Markus J. Rantala, a professor at the University of Turku, Finland, has published research in the international research journal Nature. Studies have shown that men who are considered sexy and handsome by women have a more perfect body and a more handsome appearance, reflecting that they have more antibody markers and have higher levels of testosterone in the body. Testosterone helps boost immunity. At the same time, the higher the testosterone level, the lower the stress hormone cortisol, so it is relatively less likely to get sick, and the health status is better. than ordinary men. Health status is also reflected in appearance, so these men also look more attractive.

Not applicable to women

However, the study also noted that the theory does not apply to beautiful women. Because beauty reflects good posture, it means that the amount of body fat is moderate, and the concentration of cortisol in the blood is low, which makes fertility stronger, but does not improve immunity. In addition, a study in the United States also found that the thicker a woman’s waist, the higher the risk of premature death, especially the risk of stroke, cardiovascular disease or diabetes.
